On 9 December in Cetinje, Montenegro, I will be opening two shows: Milton Glaser's "Drawing is Thinking" and Penguin Books (U.S.) book cover show "Penguin 75." Also, on the same day, I will be introducing the documentary film about Milton Glaser "To Inform & Delight" directed by Wendy Keys. These events were organized by Ana Matic, professor at Faculty of Fine Arts Cetinje (she designed the poster below, too). See you there!

An original piece of art "Training of Terrorists" by Mirko Ilic has been stolen from his retrospective exhibition "1975 – 2011: Comics, Illustration, Design, Multimedia" held in the gallery "Meander" of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Vojvodina in Novi Sad, Serbia. The actual market value of the artwork is estimated to be 4000-5000 Euros. All the exhibits in Novi Sad are insured for 600 Euros per piece.

The local police department was immediately informed about the disappearance of the artwork and the investigation is in progress.

Mirko Ilic's exhibition opened on 25 October. It was visited by several thousands of people from Novi Sad and guests from other cities.

We recently designed the catalog of the 52nd October Salon. The theme of the show was "repetition" and "obeying." We used the theme of "repetition" by creating patterns of motion of the logo over photographs of landscape; to represent the theme of "obeying" we used red punctuation marks throughout the body copy of the catalog. See detail in last image.

Helen Armstrong and Zvezdana Stojmirovic recently published a new book withPrinceton Architectural Press entitled "Participate."
The subject matter is quite interesting and provides a fresh approach about
designing with user-generated content. We are fortunate to have our identity for the
14th International Show of Drawings/Comics at theModerna Galerija / Museum of Modern Art included in this book.

The new Print Magazine "Regional Design Annual" just came out featuring an amazing
amount of good work — and I'm saying that despite the fact they only published one of ours:The New York Times Arts & Leisure section.

Our design created for the political movement "PREOKRET!" (can be translated
as REVOLUTION!, SHIFT!, or SWITCH!) is currently being displayed on billboards
in Belgrade, Serbia.
